Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)In a nutshell, it is obvious that this is a motor intended for a 52" fan trying to power 70" blades.
The 70" blades are distressed and overall the finish on this fan is gorgeous, its a real looker. But it has five fan speed settings, when even the highest only blows does not move the volume of air of the 52" fan it was replacing.
That fan, on high, moved at sufficient velocity that papers on the floor would be blown out of the way. This does not happen on the 70", although you do feel the breeze and it does move that volume of air very quietly since the fans are moving much slower.
How it achieves its 8K+ CFM rating I am not sure.
I had thought the poor reviews I had read were because people were using too short of a downrod, but even w/ a 16" downrod on my 10' ceiling, its just plain weak.
The other problem is that this uses rubber grommets to attach the fan blades. These are likely to cause blade droop after a few years as the rubber compresses on the inner face, and it means that completely accurate balancing is impossible since the blades themselves can move while in motion. Expect slight wobbling after balancing.
